The Learned CounseL did not mention the names of the parties.—Rule granted: HIGH COURT OF DELEGATES, Sznuz:ANT's UN. FRIDAY, Nov. 24. LADY BRISCO V. tun WASTZLL mac°, BART., AND SIR WASTELL DRISCO, BART. V. LAbT BIUSCO. This was originally a suit, instituted ht January, 1814, by Lady Brisco against her husband, by reason of cruelty and adul tery. During the pendency of this suit, for sometime, in the Cousistory Court of London, Sir Wastell laid a' cross suit against his Lady, by pleading her adultery in bar. Upon these two issues the cause has travelled on for nearly thirteen years in the inferior jurisdictions, diversified by appeals to the Condelegates, and to the High Court, from grievances arising out of proceedings in the principal cause, and the Court's allotment of alimony. The High Commission on this occasion, was filled by Lord Chief Justice Best, Mr. Baron Garrow, Mr. Baron Hullock, Mr. Justice Burroughs, Mr. Justice Littledale, Mr. Justice Gaselee, and by the following Advocates—Drs. Gosling, Dodson, Mey rick, Jesse Addams, Lee, &e. They assembled at about seven o'clock, and the Court was crowded to excess. Counsel for Sir Waste!! Briscri—Dr. Pnit.tastoaz and Mr. BROUGHAM; for Lady Brisco—Dr. JENNE'', Dr. PICRARDE, And Mr. KNIGHT. Dr. PIiiLLIMORE, after briefly stating the nature of this case, and the proceedings which have been beard in it, said, that up to the last decision, in April, 1825, all the costs had been paid by Sir Wastell Brier() ; but subsequently to that period, other costa, preparatory to this appeal, had been incurred on the part of Lady Brisco, which had been taxed at the suers of 2111. 18s. 2d. In July, 1825, Sir Waste!l was pronounced ith contempt for non payment of alimony ; had purged that contempt, and subse quently had allowed the allotment for which he was liable to run in arrears. But he'now prayed to be heard against the taxed costs in question, which he objected to pay, and moved that it might be referred to the Registrar in the Court below, for his re consideration. Lord Chief Justice BItST asked whether any ground was stated in the husbaad's prayer, why those taxed costs were not paid, in part or in the whole? Dr. PHILLIMORE begged their Lordships to understand, that, up to the period of the last decision, all the costs then incurred were paid by Sir Wastell. Mr. Baron litaLocx—Do you mean, Dr. Philmont, to resist the biU of taxed costs altogether? 1)r. PIII LLI StO R Cer tainly E— not, my Lords. Dr. Jim?: sit—Then I submit my Learned Friend 1111114 assur edly state some specific objection to it. Dr. Lair, one of the Judges' delegate., here prayed their Lord ships to order all the bills of costs in this matter to he produced and laid upon their table, for the benefit of the Judges. Their Lordships did not attend to this suggestion, and , Dr. Primmatoas repeated his motion, to have the taxed costs in question referred, for revision, to the registrar. That was the first proposition which the Learned Counsel mean t o submit. Ile understood it wa s t o b e oppose d, on t h e plea that Sir Wartell Brisco had not attended, though manished, the taxation of costs ;', but their Lordships would certainly not exclude him from the benefit of their interference on that account. The second proposi tion would regard the invocation of papers into this cause and Court, (rpm the registry of the Court below. Dr. .11/241,1AR begged his Learned Friend would allow the former of these priapositions, as comprising the business immediately be fore the Court to be settled in the first place. Mr. BROUGHAM, on the same aide, understood the question of costs to stand thus :-.-Sir Wastell did not, as he certainly ought to have done, attend the taxation of those which were now in titles: tion. A monition was issued, warning him to the payment of those costs ; he had not paid them ; and their Lordship. were now asked to pronounce him to be in contempt, in consequence. But, from all the analogies which the practice of the Court below suggested to his (Mr. Brougham's) mind, it appeared to hint that Sir Wastell was qualified to have hia prayer for a reference and revision granted. Dr. ClE—Pray, Sir, do you know how much the total costs of this proceeding have amounted M? Mr. BROUGRAM—Upou my word, I cannot answer the Learn ed Gentleman, having had no opportunity cif examining the bills. —(A laugh.)—But I know they have been exceedingly heavy. Dr. Lax—But cannot you say how much—within 1001. ? Mr. Baoucruam—(With surprisc)—Not even within 1001. Dr. Laz—Sir, you can tell, perhaps, within 6001. ? Mr. Banuouast—No, not within 600/. 4 I really have nol seen the bills. The Cooler—And I dare say, if you bad, Mr. Brougham, you would not have read them..._(A laugh.) Dr. Lex insisted upon the expediency and benefit of laying the papers, he spoke of (the bills of costs), before the Judges. The Lord Chief Justice Besx—Really, Dr. Lee, I think you had better allow the Counsel to proceed. Mr. BROUOItAIt then entered into an exposition of the nature of Sir W. Brisco's objection to the taxed casts. He was ad vised that much more money had been dispended by Lady Brisco, on her legal defence, than was at all rteessary to the pur. poses of that defence. Thum it appeared that his Learned Friend (Dr. Arnold), who was originally Counsel:for Lady Brine°, had, pending the suit in the SpirituaVCourts, - retired from them, as an Advocate ; and, subsequently, another Honour a bl e an d L earne d Friend of his (Dr. Lushington) had retired from the cause, in w hi c h h e h a d antecedently been of Counsel for Sir W. Brisco. Thus fir the cases were strictly parallel, as to the number of Counsel retained. Lady Brisco, however, had chosen to retain more than the other side, although she knew, that, gen era ll y speaking, the husband must be liable to all the costs of the pro ceedings, and although one of the Counsel, on his part, had retired. For this unnecessary expense, it was humbly conceived, that Lady Briseo ought to be herself liable; and that so much of the costs should be deducted from her allowance of alimony, a s was equal to this excess. Dr. LKIC again addresaed their Lordships, about the bill of costs, which he said, were forthcoming at their order. The LORD Cuter Jus-rtce directed the Court to be cleared and strangereand Counsel were excluded for some time. At their re-admission, after some observations from the CoritliarnitoishdfeeltritlfhseelyirrnLinvelidnontee: lirisco, Their Laminar*, rescinding the conclusion of the cause, re jected the act on petition, praying, that the bill of taxed costs pouncedn l l tt e b p e a s so e i n cr T t sov b back ktfeoirtio BriscoLtha e Registrar, yßiuri scoeonttehmeanpn contempt, by prayed revised; i e s d M ft re ason; payment.

Dr. Putt.ustoatt and Mr. Baougataat were then heard in sup port of the invocation of certain papers out of the Registry of the Consistory Court of London, containing a record of the sentence of that Court in a cause promoted against Lady Brim), by reason of adultery.

U. The Duke of Lemma and the Bishop of EXXUR were sworn. Lord REDESDALE presented a petition ,from Michael James Robert Dilkin, who claims the title of Earl of Ros common, praying. that His Majesty's Attorney-General *r Ire land should be summoned to attend on the 4th of December next, to receive the orders of the House relative to the petitioner's claim. The Earl of SHAFTESBURY presented the third Report of the Commissionerit of Education. The standing orders were re a d pro fo rma , and eentirrneAl. The LORD CHANCELLOR observed, that with respect to the orders relaties to the hearing of causes, as it requir the peers to attend in rotation, and as they were not all yet swore, he should move to suspend the order which directs that two peera shall be present, until after the recess. In the mean time be would propose, that after Tuesday next the house should proceed to hear the appeal causes in the manner in which they were went to be beard before the late regulation was adopted. After Tuesday next the Home would be prepared to hett . r such came* as the par ties were ready to bring forward. The LORD CHANCELLOR was desired tt• present a petition from the inhabitants and househokient of WoeteFe. in Kent, the prayer of which was, that their Lordships would, irs their wisdom, he pleased to uphold unchanged the Proteatant . Establishment of the British Constitution. The petition was per fectly respectful to the House, but he should make no observa tions on the subject, as it was more consistent with parliamentary usage, to present petitions without making speeches than with them. A petition was an addreas of the petitioners to the House, and not of the individual who presented it. Lord KING said, the first petition which he had to present to the House was nut in favour of the Corn Laws, but against Catholic Emancipation. It was the petition of a Reverend Gentleman ,in a pariah in -Devouehiee, asset 'nehent. Thelloesi might be surprised that he presented dile petition : the fact less, he had recommended the Reverend Gentleman to hand it over to his diocesan for presentation, which however he deelined. The petitioner was a very worthy gentleman, but a great centroverei -4144 as he understood. The reason.. why he gave the petition to him perhaps was, that next to the Bishops he thought him the greatest disputant, though all their Lordships knew be was a. very quiet gentleman. The reverend framer of the petition had been very earnest to get signatures. Out of 27 signatures, were by persons who could not write, bet bad signed by their crosses—so great wets the eagerness to obtain signaturo. But he could not help thinking that the great controversialist would lure better employed himself in teaching the people to ,write, than to make crosses at the bottom of a petition. He did not refuse to present this petition, nor did he think the Mimic ought to retima to receive it, though there was a great want of truth : and charity in it, much more than the Roman Catholics were accused of. As he said, however, this character did not afford sufficient reason for rejecting this petition, as the want of truth and ,charity was not peculiar to it, and indeed because that want was not greeter in it than in many other petitions. The Bishop of EXETER sa id, that the petition which the Noble Lord had just presented, did not, come from the Rev. Gentleman who had transmitted it to him, but from the parish. For his part, he did nut, like the Noble - Lord, hold the loWer orders in such contempt as to wish to deprive them of the right of petitioning when they could not write. With respect to what had been stated of the Rev. Gentlemen alluded to being a controversialist, be could say nothing, but he knew him to be a very worthy and able man. Lord KING, in explanation, said, that the Rev. Gentleman was the author of the petition. He had not stated that the, Rev. Gentleman was the only petitioner. Lord KING afterwards said that he had a great many petitions against the Corn Laws to present from- Manchester, and other places, hut he intended .to make some ob.. servations on them, and as be did not see any of-the very declared enemies of cheap corn then in the House, he should not presint them until another opportunity.--Adjourned. HOUSE, OF COMMONS, Path AY. The SPEAKER, on taking the chair, informed the House that he luid waited on his Majesty With the Address ; to which his Majesty had been pleased to return the following gracious answer : " Gentlemen of the house of Commons, I thank you for your loyal and dutiful address, and rely with confidence on your affec tionate support. You may depend upon my continued exertions to uphold the honour and the interests of the eotmtry,.to culti vate the blessings of pears abroad, and to promote the wel&re of all Chtlialta of the people at tnne." Mr. WM. SMITH moved that the Committee for inquiring whether the standing orders hare been complied with he revived 2—Agreed to. Mr. NICHOLSON CALVERT moved that a select committee be appointed, to which should be referred all petitions having for their object to dispense with any of the stand ing orders.—Agreed to. Mr. DAWSON presented a petition from the Borough of Athlone, complaining of the manner of collecting tolls in Ireland. The Hon. Member presented a petition from Roo (unmet), praying that the laws relating to corporations in Ireland should he assimilated to those in England. Both of the petitions were ordered to be panted. Mr. DAWSON gave notice, that he would move on Tuesday next for certain returns relative to the Borough of Athlone. Mr. F. BUXTON moved for an address, praying that His Majesty would he pleased to grant a copy of the me morial presented by Mr. L. Cook to Lord Charles Somerset; re specting the prize slaves at the Cape of Good Hope, and relative to the manner in which Mr. Blair had been in the habit of Ills posing of prize slaves there. The Wm. Gentleman moved also for . returns respecting the number of Government slaves, specifying their age and sex, who had been captured at the conquest of the island of Mauritius, their number at the present time, and the reasons for their decrease, if any; for copies of the orders respecting the punishment of slaves by their masters, specifying by whom those orders were made, and which of them bad been registered ; for the amount of penal ties which bad been received under the abolition acts,, and the orders in council; and for an account of the expences- which, had been incurred respecting the treaty with the chiefs of Madagiater ;• all of which were ordered.

Mr. S. RICE presented a Petition from the Cham ber of Commerce, at Limerick, praying for a repeal of tilt duty on coals in Ireland. At the same time he gave notice of his inten tion of bringing this subject before the House in the course of the present Session (unless it should be taken up by some other gen datum), because he thought that nothing could be more vain than to talk of promoting the improvement of manufactures in Ireland while a duty was imposed upon fuel. Mr. WOI)EIIOUSE moved for returns of the amount of poor rates received between March, I'M, and March, 1826.—. Ordered.

Mr. ABERCROMBY rose for the purpose of calling the attention of the House to a question which, as it CQII - He moved, in the first place, that the clerk shoithl read the entry which had been made respecting the return for the borough of Tregony. The clerk read the entry, which stated, that the sheriff of Cornwall had returned the precept directed by him to the Mayor be took to be one extreme of Tregony, with indentures of return annexed, dated the 15tb, of June last, sp e ci f ying that Stollen I.ushington, LLD. and James .Brougham, &ft. had beim d u ly elected Members for the b oroug h heriff also returned, that otte indentures of of Treg o ny.

Mr. ABERCROMBY resumed his speech and that he hoped to show the House that this seas not a double return, but that, in fact, only one return had been mod e , and that w h a t purported to be a second return was a mere nullity , . If he did this, be submitted. that all the House would have to deiwould be to order the entry which had just been read to be reetitled.

INJUNCTION TO RESTRAIN PUBLICATION. - - IMEILWOOD VOMSTZ - --••VENS. : Mr. HORNS, on the part of the plaintiff, a Parliamentary Agent, of considerable practice, applied for an Injunction to restrain the defendant, a Law Bookseller, front publishi ig a Work, entitled, Private Bill s through b ‘ Ot ira h 3 h Lti u e s a e l e Instructions of ffiarliam the Parliament," Passing purporting to be written by a "Parliamentary Agent." The keireitralitancee under which the 1 Learned Conned made the application were these r—Mr. Sher- Wood had collected, in hie business, as p ar u ateentary Agent, a great variety of very valuable manuscript s , rela t ive to the pass i ng Private Bills through Parliament ; and as no . Work bad been written on the subject, these papers were, of course, doubly valuable. The plaintiff had for some time einployed as his clerk a person of the name of Ebbs, who had had acc ess to these papers, an d h a d t ur ned them to a good account, for, unknown to his eiriplo:er, he had written a beak in which he had niade use of all the se manuscr i p t s , an d had entitl e d it "practical instructions for th e p ass i ng P r i va t e Bills through b ot h Houses of Parliament. " This book Mr. Ebbs carried to Mr. Steve ns , and agreed w i th hi m to share in the profits of the work. The work was published in due time, and came into the bands of Mr. Sh erwood. The latter was much surp rised' to see a great deal o f hi e own informat i on contained in i t , mixed up with.the grossest blunders. With res pect to the title of Mr. Stevens to the work, the Learned Counsel thought it w ou ld appear p r etty clearly t h at he had none. Mr. Ebbs bad appeared under the anonymous character of a Parlia , . tnentery Agent, and the agreement was to share in the profit and Ines_ Mr. Restnearox was heard on the same side. Stevens contended, that as Mr. Watau r , as C ounse l for Mr twenty months had been allowed to elapse before an application for an injunction had been made, the Court ought to grant no relief. Mr. }Wass shortly replied. A copy of th e nu mw ript had
